Masterpiece Monday

For the last week, we have been working on a masterpiece in our laundry room.
Gill started by adding beadboard and molding.  After he built and installed the shelf, I painted.
Gill installed hooks with the boys and built a beautiful bench.
I did a final coat of paint and added the baskets, and voila!
Our first house masterpiece!  I love our new mudroom!

Masterpiece Monday

Sully has made several great snowmen lately!
He made this snowman at preschool
This snowman was made at a special Snow Storytime at the library.  We had a fun morning on Friday with Rebecca and Drew dancing, listening to snow stories, and creating all kinds of snowmen.

Family Dinner and Game Night

 Tonight Nannie and PopPop came over to join us for Family Game Night.

While I was making dinner, Sully, Daddy and Nannie played the Wii while Pop Pop played basketball with the big guys.
After dinner we all enjoyed some crazy rounds of Uno Attack!

Swoosh!

Today while Gill was working on the mudroom, the boys and I assembled the basketball hoop we gave them for Christmas. Since then, they have spent every day outside shooting hoops.

Edventure

Today we drove down to Columbia to the Edventure Children's museum.  We love this museum and try to go twice a year, and it's always more fun when Daddy comes with us!
Snowville was in full force and the boys loved sledding and the snowball fight.
We made lots of creations (and try to make them fly).  
The boys made parachutes, helicopters and robots.
After over 3 hours, we had explored the entire museum. 
I'm so glad we got to visit the museum over winter break, so much fun!

New Years Eve 2014

This year we rung in the New Year in our new home with old friends!
The boys helped me pick out decorations and party hats for all their friends.
(Finnegan even put a name tag next to each hat at the kids table) 
 I was thrilled to finally do some real cooking in our new kitchen!
We celebrated with the Coziers and Weimers and everyone had so much fun!
Cheers to 2015!
